How to play AC/DC - You Shook Me All Night Long by acdc on guitar
This song is a great beginner pick because it feels immediate and energetic right away. You get a strong, driving rock feel without needing a lot of complicated changes, so it is fun to lock in quickly and keep steady.
Most of the chart uses open shapes, which makes it friendly under the fingers. The harder barre shapes are G#, A#, Bm, and B, so if those appear, give them extra attention. The main change to watch is the back-and-forth between G and D, especially in the opening progression.
Start by learning the G - D - G - D move very slowly until it feels smooth. Then practice switching only between the shapes that appear in the full song, keeping your hand relaxed. Once the changes are clean, bring it up to tempo and focus on staying steady through the whole progression.
Use the play-along above to follow each chord change in time with the music, or learn the shapes first with the chord diagrams below.
